1207810 - Add TreeherderJob.add_machine_url() to add machine details

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Tree Management :: Treeherder: API, defect)

Description

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+2]]

Similar to add_build_url() we would need add_machine_url() which can be used to set a specific URL of a machine. This is important if the machines are not managed by IT and not accessible via 

https://secure.pub.build.mozilla.org/builddata/reports/slave_health/slave.html?name=

With the above method we could then specify our own path like:

Hmm I'm wondering if the true fix for these kind of features (linking to external pages related to the job, but whose base URL vary depending on the external system that scheduled/submitted the job) is to just use JobDetails instead?

We'd then have a set of standard JobDetail types for things that are exposed in Treeherder's UI, and external systems can provide their own display text/URLs for them.

If it isn't resolved yet, can I work on this?

In the new Taskcluster world, these machine pages don't really exist, so I think we should wontfix this.

Thank you for the interest though! :-)
